Profile

Over 6 years of web design/development experience, with proven success managing all phases of the development lifecycle including design, front-end architecture, and back-end functionality. I am dedicated to meeting deadlines and delivering high quality markup and code deliverables on budget. I love working with new technologies and platforms. I strive to add more and more technologies to my already established toolkit, which includes PHP, MySQL/MariaDB database management, Javascript front-end frameworks, UI/UX experimentation, animation effects and a variety of open source CMS software solutions.

My creative side is expressed with my animation projects. I've spent over 10 years working with Adobe Suite animation and video tools. I enjoy creating my own projects from scratch, or working with illustrators to bring their vision to life. I want to continue to hone my three dimensional expertise with modelling and rigging. I love blending mathematics with art to create unique and wonderful visual experiences. I am entranced by fractals.
